Well, I recently found myself in the same situation, so I can really relate. The ONLY thing that works for me is to go extremely low carb. I gained back quite a bit before fully realizing it, but...
I am with you, sister! I stopped losing weight about Christmas LAST year. I stopped tracking my food, ate sweets occasionally, and packed 20 pounds back on in no time (at least it seems). Two...
Same here to all the above. You are not alone. I got hooked on Quest protein bars and they nearly did me in. I gained back 18 pounds, hit 200 and had a real wake up call. So I am working my way...
MIne is OAM. It stands for On A Mission.
I became addicted to them - and not in a good way. The chocolate chip cookie dough acted as a trigger for me. I would eat one and within minutes I started craving another, and never felt any...
I am in Collin County, Texas. I have about 25 cases (18 per case) of Premier chocolate shakes. They sell for $20.00 a piece at Sams. I need someone to take some off my hands! Anyone interested?
Steve, what your are feeling is normal, most people have worries. How could you not? But what helped get me through it was thinking about my nephew, who is a fire fighter walked up a six story...
Those have been my candy, breakfast, lunch and sometimes even dinner. I know how to get to net carbs out of total carbs, but I don't really understand the difference chemically. If that makes any...
Really great thread, thank you all for sharing! I have been having trouble with trigger foods (sweets), and protein bars have been a big part of the problem. Great for protein, but the damned...
I went through them and had a great experience. The review in the link above is rather surprising. It's true that it is a business, and you don't spend much time with the surgeon before the...
Oh yes. It was my daughters wedding pictures for me as well. I was absolutely stunned. I had no idea I looked that bad!! I was mortified.
I am having a similar problem as Ruth Beans, only I am not a year out yet. I haven't gained much back, but I did stop loosing and have seen a few pounds creep back on. Dyberrah's response was...
Hated them at first, love them now.
I don't blame you. I have really been struggling with the cravings for sweets. It's funny, because it used to be starchy stuff like breads and potatoes. Anyhow, if I was offered some short term...
I thought it was only me that things like that happened to. Thanks for the chuckle!
About wasting money - I have learned the fun of thrift shopping. There is just something about the thrill of the hunt. I used to hate buying clothes, but now I can't wait to get out there on a...
I have some diet sprite now and then, but I don't drink it straight. I buy it in the bottle so that it can be recapped and kept in the refrigerator after opening. I mix it with diet cranberry juice...
I have a niece who had bypass along with her husband 2 years ago. They have a daughter together who is just four and she has this problem. She has very limited access to anything unhealthy, but...
Just wanted to wish you luck!
It's funny how we are all so different. I hated the Premier Protein drinks at first, but now I love them. I drink one every morning for breakfast, and they are filling. Protein bars don't fill me...
Thank you all so much for replying. Yes, I do count the bars as a meal replacement but even with that my common sense and my cravings aren't matching up. I am post menopausal and a slow looser, so...
I can't stop craving the chocolate chip cookie dough and the cookies and crème protein bars. I eat like 3 a day, and would eat more if I didn't force myself to stop. They are almost sliders for me....
Heck yeah!
I honestly believe in sugar and carb addictions. Once you give in a little bit, they own you until you detox off of them, just like a drug. It doesn't take very long, about 3-4 days and the...
Truffles, that's a great idea on the chicken. I have been eating a lot of the apple, pecan and chicken salads from Wendy's. I have been worried the chicken may be "treated" somehow. But my chicken...
